This is almost viewable from my home.
I went and took a look this morning when I dropped my son off for school. I’m assuming it was a major equipment failure otherwise I can’t imagine this happening where it is.
I’d hate to be that pilot
The channels in that area are huge and deep. Extremely well marked but since a pilot is required to bring these ships up the bay it’s not like
It’s someone who’s is not familiar with the route.
I’ve lived her a long time and this is first one I know of. In my opinion, baring anything nefarious it would have to be equipment failure.
Or complete incompetence but that’s less likely.
But what do I know? I’m just a recreational boater that’s very familiar with the area. So it’s anyone’s guess

What if there were a drunk at the helm?
Could be maybe they got some hard crabs and beer before leaving. Kek
